My whole30 experience - Day 16

Wellllllll it's been a little over 2 weeks now and I'm still going. It's been a battle at times, but worth it on so many levels.

My energy levels have increased dramatically, my sleeping has improved and my bloating has gone down. Yay!
Sleeping has always been an issue for me, for as long as I can remember anyway. And now I'm going to bed by 9:30pm every night, and waking up only once or twice throughout the night to go to the bathroom and waking up at about 6:30-7am every morning feeling fresh as a daisy. It's new to me, and it's a great feeling!

My meals have been pretty good, I'm not yet bored so that's always a positive.


On a negative though; I've had an absolutely shit day today. It's mainly because of money. Money. Money. F*cking money! It's the maker and the breaker of the world. It can really ruin lives. The stress it puts on you is just, just, shit. Agreed?
I've never been a rich person, I grew up with parents that struggled, and then separated so then they struggled even more, but I didn't have a miserable poor life either. There was always food on the table, I always got to do the things I wanted with my horses, which anyone that knows what it's like to have horses, they are not a cheap animal to have or hobby to have. Especially if you compete, and if you have the type of horses we had/have. Anyway, I've gone off track. What I was saying was, I've never been rich, but I am good at making money but also very good at spending it. Probably a bit too good, if you ask my bank account. But because I am starting uni this year, I'm not going to be able to earn a full time wage with all the perks of sick and annual leave anymore- what the hell am I going to do?! I haven't even started uni yet, am working part time as much as possible, but am seriously struggling. Definitely a lot more going out than there is coming in.. and that's because of my shopping addiction. Or rather, food shopping addiction now.This whole30 isn't cheap which sucks. I really have to control what I'm buying. The only advantage is that if you make something big, you can eat it for leftovers. Snaps!

Ok, I don't know what I'm hoping to achieve by writing this blog, but I really just like to do it because it clears my mind. Would love to know how to get more followers if people like it.. so if anyone wants to share some info, please feel free to send it on =)


Anyway, that's all for now.

Till next time,
